To celebrate the announcement of New Zealand, Australia, UK and Europe tour dates, Lorde has released the studio version of 'Sober' - lifted from her forthcoming 'Melodrama' album (out June 16th).
Listen to 'Sober' below...
When the announcement came that Panic! At The Disco’s Brendon Urie would be a part of the new season of ‘Kinky Boots’, the internet seemingly exploded with excitement around Brendon’s starring role as Charlie Price - which has since manifested into ticketing, with sales up 20% on what they were previously. And the excitement at Al Hirschfeld Theatre on the day of the show was just as enthusiastic, with a number of fans showing their support by wearing Panic! At The Disco merch to the performance.
Halsey has released a series of videos of her performances at her recent Vevo Presents show in Los Angeles, as well as a behind-the-scenes look where she talks abut the inspiration for the album.

To celebrate the release of Phoenix’s brand new album ‘Ti Amo’, their first album since 2013, we’ve compiled some of our favourite things about the French band.
Here are five things we appreciate about Phoenix…
#1. Their music video for the lead single ‘J-Boy’ (which stands for Just Because Of You, FYI) was directed by Warren Fu - who has worked previously with the likes of Daft Punk, The Weeknd, HAIM, and more. Watch the Italian-style television show performance below…
Following the release of her debut single ‘Issues’, Julia Michael has followed it up with ‘Uh Huh’ - an electric and catchy tune, with Michaels singing over guitars in the verse, before a chorus that’ll be stuck in your head for weeks.
Listen to ‘Uh Huh’ below…
Harry Styles has added 56 new show dates in 2018 to his sold-out world tour, kicking off in March 2018 in Switzerland, and finishing up in Los Angeles in July. The new dates will supported by Kacey Musgraves (U.S. and Canada), Warpaint (Asia) and Leon Bridges (South America and Mexico), with special guests for Europe and Australia to be announced soon.
All tickets go on sale on Friday, June 16th via local ticket agents.
The 1975’s Matty Healy has taken to Twitter to announce some very important facts pertaining to The 1975’s future - sharing that the band are working on the final of their trilogy of albums, which is titled ‘Music For Cars’.
After this, Drive Like I Do [The 1975’s old project] will apparently release their debut album during Spring in the coming years.

Ahead of the release of her sophomore album ‘Melodrama’ next week, Lorde has dropped a number of tour dates - starting in the UK in September, through October, before returning home to New Zealand for six shows, before finally playing Australia after that.
The New Zealand/Australia shows are as follows [with the Dunedin show happening on her 21st birthday!]:
Tuesday night isn’t typically a night for getting ‘turnt’ - however, at Barclays Center on Tuesday night, about 18,000 New Yorkers were doing just that, thanks to The Weeknd and his ‘Starboy: Legend Of The Fall’ tour that was in town. Last night was the first of two shows scheduled at the venue, and it showcased his distinctive R&B sound - but not only that, a tour which has been entirely constructed to represent Abel as the Starboy that he is.
After touring had ended for their second album, ‘This Is All Yours’, alt-J found themselves taking breaks from their typical musical process of going back into writing and recording straight away - instead each of them exploring their own interests outside music. The break evidently worked, with their third just-released album ‘Relaxer’ taking them back to their roots, while at the same time showcasing a level of growth.
